In this section of shooting willows, there are a lot of collisions between the characters of all parties, and the contradictions will be intensified to the extreme...... Why, there's no hurry.

I'm going to go to the grave today, and there's only so much to come, so let's just take a look. (Note: Mistakes and omissions are corrected)

------Off topic------

"Hey, two friends, what a coincidence."

Xia Chuqi blinked his eyes, "I'll go", and shouted with laughter.

It's a thatched house again? They are both together in the thatched house, and no one believes them if they are not engaged in the foundation.

The weirdest thing is that the two of them walked out side by side.

Before Dongfang Amur gave her an answer, on the edge of a rockery not far ahead, her candidate answer appeared - a Zhao Bottle, an Oriental Qingxuan.

Xia Chuqi smiled, "Who is he?" ”

He?

"Don't thank me. I just don't want him to be upset. ”

Dongfang Amur hated her hippie smile more and more, and his cold face was full of hatred.

"But I've been living well." Xia Chuqi grinned, "Is it the Queen Mother's mercy, or do you suddenly believe in Buddhism, are you ready to eat fast and do good, and no longer do the same bad thing as stealing chickens and touching dogs to me?" ”

"I want to kill you."

When did the Eastern Amur ever see such a wild woman as her? Hurriedly taking a step back, she looked at her with disgust, her voice cold, with a touch of disgust that could not be concealed.

"Beauty, are you caring about me?"

She folded her arms, approached slowly, and blew a breath of "fairy qi" at Amur.

This relationship between friend and foe has changed too much to make people laugh and cry, right?

By the way, Dongfang Amur can understand Mongolian. In other words, what did Ulan Mingzhu say to her girl that was unfavorable to her, so that Dongfang Amur listened to it, and then came to tell her? But that's weird! Isn't this pretty girl in front of her who wants to come forward and pinch it her biggest rival?

Xia Chuqi was stunned and reacted suddenly.

"Be careful."

Oriental Amur's gaze was fixed on her face, and in the sun, there seemed to be a wave of light flickering under her eyes.

"Does it count as half heard?"

At the beginning of the summer, Qiyi was silent, knowing what she said about the Ulan Pearl, and smiled indifferently.

"Did the queen hear it?"

Dongfang Amur frowned, how could he understand what she said about "Mao You"?

"It turns out that the Queen Mother is also a Mao friend? Disrespectful, disrespectful! ”

"Ahh

When she was comfortable, she stretched out in the sunshine, and returned slowly the same way, and after walking a few steps, she saw a graceful figure standing in the shade of an oak tree. The man stood silently, his eyes looking over as if waiting for her.

But the magic of fate lies in not being resisted. The cogs of each person's fate also have to be nested with the fate of others. Turning together, moving forward together, what should happen is destined to happen, and all grievances, hatreds, and love-hate entanglements will be mixed together and flow into the long river of history......

She hasn't pinched Zhao Nineteen's peach blossoms yet, and Zhao Mianze's peach blossoms have also been counted on her.

I always didn't eat the meat, and I was fishy.

Sighing secretly, she found that her fate was quite magical.

Now that she is also involved with the word "sex", should she be happy or worried? Isn't it just that you are pregnant with a child and your breasts are a little bigger? What the hell is so calculating? She, the "queen", doesn't care about her "favorite concubine", why is she in the way of the eyes of the "favorite concubine"?

This realization made her cry and laugh.

It's a funny statement. Soon, the peeing gentleman next door said again, and it became a Mongolian language that Xia Chuqi couldn't understand. However, even if she didn't understand, she understood that the "Israeli-flattering bitch" they wanted to unload was herself.

"Bayar!" Wulan Mingzhu shouted again, as if she was a little angry, "If you learn Chinese, you won't be able to speak Mongolian?" ”

Xia Chuqi frowned, and before she could figure out who they were talking about, the girl named Bayar snorted again, "Your Majesty indulged her and allowed her to be embarrassed there." Niangniang, what is the difference between her wearing those bells and whistles clothes and the bitch in Qin Huai's hook bar? ”

Although this voice was very low, it was also familiar, and Xia Chuqi quickly remembered that beautiful face. Although it has only passed one or two times, it is still fresh in my memory. She is not an outsider, she is Zhao Mianze's favorite concubine Wulan Mingzhu.

"Bayar, shut your mouth."

Another, smaller, softer voice came.

Xia Chuqi was slightly stunned. It seems that the development of toilet culture is not divided into ancient and modern! Moreover, listening to the corners of the wall in the thatched pit, I often hear something that I can't usually hear. She glanced at Qinglan, "shh

"But what is there to be proud of a good-looking bitch?"

Suddenly, from across the wall, there was a sound of footsteps and the rustling of clothes, followed by a low taunt.

With a sigh of relief, she felt like peeing was like a war.

Xia Chuqi's skirt was too long and her belly was too round, even if Qinglan was carrying it for her on the side, it was extremely inconvenient.

Probably because this is used to receive nobles, the toilet is very advanced, it is a small room, and it is very clean.

This pavilion is very chic, rockeries, flowers, spring pools, pavilions, everything, but she didn't want to watch, asked a little eunuch on duty, and went to the toilet of the hotel.

Meizi took over her task and happily teased the girl. Xia Chuqi couldn't care about that much, so he led Qinglan away. It was a halfway park, and the crowd was not as neat as it was at Fengtianmen, and as they walked along, her figure attracted countless eyes, but she didn't have time to pay attention to those people, so she straightened her wide skirt and rushed to the hotel.

"Yes, Miss Seven."

"Peel a fruit for the little princess and eat it, I'll wait next time."

"Okay, hug. Hug and be good. "Xia Chuqi can't stand the little girl's coquettishness, such a small and soft voice, shouting makes her heart melt. However, she was pregnant and couldn't pick up the girl, so she had to symbolically hug her and call Meizi over.

"No!" Yaya opened her arms and asked her to hug, "Yaya hug......"

The little girl's milky cry hooked up the motherhood in her heart. She half-bowed, pinched her face, and smiled softly, "Good girl, you are waiting for my aunt in the car." Auntie will come and play with you later, okay? ”

"Mother, mother...... Play ......"

She said that she was about to get out of the car, but the girl grabbed her by the sleeve.

"No, I'll go and make it easier too."

"Convenient ......" Xia Chuqi didn't care about Zhao Ziyue's bad mood, and when she muttered, she suddenly felt the urge to urinate. Pregnant women are prone to frequent urination and urgency, and she only cared about making up for sleep before, and did not think of this life event, but now she was reminded by Qingteng, and she couldn't hold it back.

"No, it's still early, I guess it's an hour." Qingteng said with a smile, "This is the Yanyun Pavilion, the master and the ladies should take a break and set off after a cup of tea." No, my princess was in a bad mood, so I brought the little princess over to play with the mother. ”

"Arrived at Dongyuan?"

Between the eyebrows and eyes of the little girl, she looked a little similar to Zhao Ziyue carefully, at the car window, she waved her little hand, and there was a sound of "oh" in her mouth. Xia Chuqi said goodbye to Zhou Xuan, yawned, and looked around, only to realize that the convoy had stopped at some point.

"Miss Seven! The little princess is here for you. ”

Xia Chuqi sat in the phoenix, squinting and dozing all the way, until Qingteng hugged Yaya.

The emperor's motorcade was extremely grand, and the beginning and the end were not visible. On both sides of the road, the Praetorian Guards held halberds and wore armor, blocking the onlookers. The brocade guard in front of the car was dressed in honor uniforms, holding yellow covers, leading flags, and hunting in the wind. The emperor is in front, the phoenix is behind, the concubines are close behind according to their positions, the princes and princes, the civil and military officials, the royal forest army is mighty, the momentum is grand, the guard is strict, and almost every ray of sunlight is projected, and the color of the blade can be seen.

On the way to Dongyuan, the sun paved the ground with broken gold.

The bells rang loudly and the drums rang in unison.

~

More precisely, it's called the Chiguli skirt. When she received the news from Aunt Yu last night, she thought of this method and specially asked Meizi, Qinglan and Gu Ajiao to make it overnight. However, on the basis of the later generations of hanbok, she has made some improvements, the style does not look too abrupt, and it can be graceful and luxurious.

Fortunately, this hanbok is too exquisite, perfectly covering her bulging belly.

If it weren't for her helplessness, she really didn't want to take Xiao Nineteen to take such a risk.

She's not afraid, she's just nervous.

Pursing her lips and smiling softly, she lowered the curtain.

She saw him at that glance, and he was saying, "Don't be afraid."

Zhao Shijiu also looked at her, and the two of them collided in the air and slid away in an instant.

As she walked up, her gaze swept across the crowd.

Xia Chuqi didn't seem to hear the "meaning" in her words, Shi Shiran bowed and retreated, lifted the corner of her skirt, and was supported by Qinglan, and walked towards Feng Yuan elegantly, looking relaxed and comfortable, she didn't care, but no one knew, her palms were already wet with sweat.

The Empress Dowager looked at her "novel" clothes again, and smiled slightly, "The auspicious time has come, and all the Qing families are still waiting, and the mourning family will not be courteous to you." When we get to the East Garden, it's not too late to talk about it. ”

"Thank you, Queen Mother."

Xia Chuqi's face was full of brightness, and he bowed again.

The Empress Dowager's eyes sank slightly, and her voice when she coughed was still smiling, "Such a sensible child, no wonder Mianze likes you so much." Alas! Looking at your well-behaved and lovely appearance, the mourning family is also very happy. ”

"Back to the Empress Dowager, the people's daughter is Xia Chu." Xia Chuqi also looked at her with a smile, looking at her face that was more haggard than two years ago, looking at the dense crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, looking very deferential, "The Empress Dowager, when the people are few and far between, coincides with the great changes in the family, no one teaches etiquette, if there is anything wrong, I hope the Empress Dowager will forgive me, and please teach more in the future." ”

"Excuse me! You are Xia Chu? ”

Zhao Mianze's face was a little ugly, and he sat back on the sedan chair without saying a word. The Empress Dowager looked her up and down silently, as if she had never known the county lord of Jingyi, and it was only the first time she had met her, and she raised her hand with a smile.

Obviously, she did not admit her identity.

She is not called "concubine", only called the people's daughter, a simple title, which once again added to Zhao Mianze's embarrassment, and also made the ministers of Fengtianmen eager to plug their ears and pretend that they didn't hear. If she is a concubine, she is Zhao Mianze's wife, and if she is a people's daughter, then she is only Miss Xia Qi.

As if he hadn't noticed his embarrassment at all, Xia Chuqi bowed his head slightly, and obediently said to the Empress Dowager, "People's girl Xia Chu, meet the Empress Dowager." ”

A simple action...... She could have put him to death.

She smiled at Zhao Mianze, her voice was polite and detached, her arm slid away without a trace, and without letting him touch it, she walked towards the empress dowager who was driving in another car. Zhao Mianze's hands were empty, and he looked at her in a daze, his heart was like a needle sting, stinging inch by inch, slowly spreading all over his body.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Xia Chuqi didn't want to squat down in the first place, and he couldn't ask for it when he heard "no courtesy".

"The queen is exempt!"

She smiled lightly, the golden steps on her sideburns swayed, and the chic skirt also smiled affectionately, like a feather brushing, which made Zhao Zhu's heart itch, and she couldn't wait to drag her out and hide it from the man next to her. And her sentence "to show solemnity, specially made clothes" also made Zhao Mianze's heart, as if immersed in warm water, when she slowly approached Shi Li, she couldn't help but get off the road and walk towards her.

"Guys, what do you think of me like that?" She turned slightly, her skirt made an arc, and said with a smile, "In order to show solemnity, I specially made this dress overnight, so I am late, and I hope that Your Majesty and the Queen Mother will forgive you." ”

Xia Chuqi raised his chin slightly, met the eyes of all the people, and smiled playfully.

In Fengtianmen, where countless beauties are full of complexions, she slowly got down, stood alone in the middle, raised her head with her chest straight, and swept her eyes at a glance, which was radiant and graceful, which made people's eyes shine, and she was amazed by that elegant and charming posture, and regretted that this did not belong to her.

The shallow thrush, tightly bound chest, delicate twisted out of the dust.

It was a costume that none of them had ever seen. It looks like a traditional hanfu, but it is a little different from the traditional hanfu. Placket neckline, double skirt. The upper body is tight, and the lower body is scattered; narrow sleeves, long skirt; The high-waisted corset, the position of the corset is tied with a fluttering embroidered silk silk, and the long skirt spreads from the position below the chest, mopping the floor, like a round "chicken cover". The "chicken cover" has only one color, which is the red color that symbolizes the queen's dignity, but the narrow upper body of the dress is embroidered with smoke, which is chic and chic, and the design of the light and slow stroke makes her towering breasts particularly beautiful, and the wide skirt corners below also shrouded her entire lower body. Although it is weird, it is elegant, coupled with gorgeous texture and chic style, the clothes are bright, luxurious, and the colors are grand, and they are so exquisite that they are amazing, and the people who set her off are dignified and virtuous, as well as amorous and charming.

This Miss Xia Qi has always been a maverick, and most people are used to her unreliable style, so it is not surprising that she only came at this time. What they were amazed at now was the gorgeous and strange clothes on her body.

Quiet, deathly silence, a pin drop can be heard.

In a huge place, suddenly there was no sound.

Except for him, all the eyes of Fengtianmen were also momentarily stunned when they fell on her.

In the crowd, Zhao Jun raised his eyes and looked over, and the corners of his lips twitched slightly.

A clear and graceful sound like a yellow warbler out of the valley came out of the phoenix chariot leisurely, and when it fell into the ear, the aftersound was around, which was very good. Immediately after, Feng Yuan opened the curtain, and Qinglan helped the man slowly walk down.

"I'm sorry, I'm late."

Luan drove to a slow stop. Outside the Fengtian Gate, countless eyes with different meanings looked at Feng Yuan in unison. seems to be waiting to see why this "queen mother", who has been away from the world for a long time, is so late.

She finally came.

As soon as Luan drove the car, the ceremonial music of Fengtianmen was played in unison. But at this moment, in the direction of the thousand-step corridor driven by the emperor, a luxurious phoenix chariot slowly walked over. The Ministry of Rites glanced at it, his face was suddenly happy, and he sang loudly: "The queen has arrived-"

"Long live—"

He Chengan bowed and saluted and sang loudly.

"Yes."

Zhao Mianze waved his hand and sighed lightly, "Let's go, you don't have to wait." As soon as his feet landed on the throne, he suddenly paused, turned his head, his eyes swept to He Cheng'an, and his voice was a little colder, "You wait here, if the queen comes, you will lead her directly to Dongyuan." If she hadn't come...... Don't bother. ”

"Your Majesty?" Sima Ruiming shouted again, interrupting his thoughts.

He hadn't seen Xia Chu for a long time, and since she left the palace and returned to the Wei Mansion, the two never had a chance to meet again. These days, he has wanted to go to the Wei Mansion countless times to see her. But first, she couldn't wipe off her face, and secondly, she knew that she didn't want to see him. A lot of time has been waiting, and he doesn't care about these months. But this time, when he got the news that the Empress Dowager said that she would come, he was also full of expectations, but she ......

Zhao Mianze's throat tightened slightly, and his gaze froze in the thousand-step corridor.

"Your Majesty......" Seeing that Zhao Mianze was still hesitating, Sima Ruiming, the supervisor of Qin Tianjian, cautiously stepped forward and said, "The auspicious time has come, if you don't set off again, I am afraid that it will damage the national ......."

"Back to Your Majesty, it's a moment."

"What time is it?"

Zhao Mianze didn't answer him, his dark eyes turned and he looked at He Cheng'an, who was serving beside him.

In the silence, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu coughed, stepped forward and knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has already sent Feng Yuan to the Wei State Mansion when he was in Yin. This one...... Otherwise, the minister will send someone to run again and pick up the queen mother? ”

No one dares to talk about the affairs between the emperor and the queen, but everyone has their own conclusion in their hearts, and in such an embarrassment, even if they don't say anything and look at each other, they are tacit.

Zhao Mianze's luxurious crown sleeves waved slightly, stood in front of Luan Yu, glanced faintly at the end of the thousand-step corridor, and did not speak. But the crowd around suddenly fell silent.

Now that the hour has come, is she coming or not?

But everyone who should have arrived has arrived, and the convoy is about to leave, except for the "Queen Mother". Everyone knows that although the seventh lady of the Wei Mansion has not married Emperor Jianzhang, she is the queen of the King James and has already been canonized, so it stands to reason that she should appear. Although there is a "catastrophe", the Empress Dowager specially invited her, and she can no longer avoid it.

After the sacrifice is completed, just wait for the emperor to ascend to Luanyu, and then you can set off.

At this time, the car to Dongyuan was ready.

The sacrificial text is lengthy and the etiquette is extremely cumbersome, but everyone in Fengtianmen is respectful, starting from the Son of Heaven, they have bowed and kowtowed to show their sincerity to God, and they will never dare to have the slightest slackness. In contrast to this, it is the Empress Dowager. In the entire Fengtianmen, she was the only one who did not get off the carriage.

Lan Zi'an, the priest of the Ministry of Rites, chanted loudly, "In the twenty-seventh year of Wei Hongtai, the age of Jiaxu, on May 30, Emperor Jianzhang would like to send Lan Zi'an, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, to pay tribute to the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan ......."

On the sacrificial table, the three animals, the three animals, melons and fruits, and the dishes are all neatly placed. Zhao Mianze stood at the front, dressed in a solemn crown, leading the neatly arranged civil and military officials, princes and princesses, and slowly facing the altar.

Nowadays, no matter what they do, they have to inform "God" first, especially the royal family, which attaches great importance to these etiquettes, but whenever there is a major ceremony, an altar must be set up to worship. However, with this singing, Zhao Zhu directly asked the Empress Dowager to resign and walked to the sacrificial procession.

"It's auspicious! Worship the beginning of the heavens—"

She had just said half of this when a long song from the chamberlain was heard by the altar not far away.

"Old Nineteen, if you really forget, it's a good thing......"

"Heh, the queen was originally going to be robbed in the house, but the mourning family was afraid that she was too boring, so they specially sent someone to pass her over, accompany the mourning family to Dongyuan to relax, and casually check the pulse for the mourning family" The queen mother did not shy away from talking about the "past" with Xia Chuqi in front of Zhao Zhu, and seeing that he still didn't do anything, the corners ......of her mouth slowly showed a complicated smile.

"I don't know."

If a normal person hears about someone who is closely related to him, he will inevitably have a different face without preparation, but on Zhao Zhu's indifferent and cold face, there is no half of a wave, just like the "queen" in the mouth of the empress dowager, which has nothing to do with him. If he hadn't seen him crawl out of the bed on the seventh day of the summer month this morning, it is estimated that even God would believe his innocence.

If you ask it casually like this, it's easiest to catch people off guard.

"Why hasn't the queen arrived yet?"

Zhao Jun just listened, and said "um" from time to time, and did not answer, as cold and arrogant as always. The Empress Dowager was accustomed to his temperament, and she didn't care about it, so she gave a few words of advice to herself, smiled helplessly, and changed her words suddenly.

Soon, she turned her face away, swept around the crowd at random, and saw Wuren Xiaoxiao dressed in Princess Beidi's costume, "That kid looks pretty good, he looks weird and neat, but I don't know how he behaves?" After a pause, she added, "Alas! If it weren't for the fact that the mourning family was riddled with illnesses and lack of energy, I would have chosen two women to come to the house for you to wait, where would you be so slow? There are more than 20 people, not to mention the branches and leaves, there is not even one heir, and there is only one person, which makes people worry. ”

The Empress Dowager's eyes froze.

Zhao Zhu smiled, as if he didn't care, "If you lose your horse, don't you know if it's a blessing?" Fortunately, thanks to this change, Erchen was able to get to know Princess Beidi, which was also a fate, and Erchen was content. ”

"Old nineteen, old nineteen, I forgot about the past, but my temperament still hasn't changed. It's great to be open-minded and transparent, not floating in the world, but-" After a pause, she sighed suddenly, "I don't care about the things on the side, it's just that your marriage is full of twists and turns, it's really ...... Alas! ”

"If you don't know, your heart will be quiet, and if you don't know, your heart will be wide." The Empress Dowager repeated, coughing lightly, the wrinkles on her face seemed to smile, and that sigh was also full of relief.

Zhao Zhu's eyes remained unchanged, and his face was extremely deferential, "I'm worried about my mother." Erchen really forgot about the past, but he didn't treat it as a bad thing. If you don't know, your heart will be quiet; If you don't know, your heart is wide. ”

Such motherly care is really moving.

"Much better." The Empress Dowager's loving gaze swept over his face, and a faint doubt appeared in her eyes, "Old Nineteen, the mourning family heard that your body is not very good, and you have forgotten some old things, and I have been thinking about it in my heart. When I returned to Beijing today, although I was to watch the willow shooting, I actually wanted to see you. ”

"Mother, are you feeling better?"

Zhao Jun looked up, did not hesitate, and walked straight to the carriage.

"Old Nineteen!"

After a period of official orthodox vain, the Empress Dowager did not get out of the car. And because she has always been easy-going and humble, others are not afraid of her, and they have turned around and prepared for their own sacrifices. Seeing everyone's busyness, the Empress Dowager looked at Zhao Zhu gently and nodded at him.

"Empress Dowager Xie!"

In the obedient greetings, another cough passed in the carriage, and the gentle and smiling face of the Empress Dowager appeared in the open curtain, "The emperor pleases up, and all the ministers are flat." The old woman is here to join in the fun today, you don't have to be formal. ”

"The ministers respectfully invite the Empress Dowager Jin An!"

"Son-in-law greets the queen mother!"

"Grandson greets the imperial grandmother!"

With a cough that was not light or heavy in the carriage, everyone, including Zhao Mianze, saluted the carriage one after another.

Glancing at the carriage, Zhao Gou stopped, and Zhao Tuo did not step forward.

Zhao Gou got out of the carriage and collided with his gaze in the air, as if he had something to say. But just as he was about to step forward, another ordinary carriage with two wheels slowly drove over from the thousand-step corridor.

With a shallow squint, he just nodded and did not greet anyone. And others also know who he is, and they don't feel embarrassed, they just bow their heads and whisper. While waiting, the attendants took a roll call one after another, and the Queen Mother, the Emperor, the Harem Xian, Shu, Zhuang, Jing, Hui Wufei, Princess Ziyue, Qin King Zhao Gou and others also arrived at Fengtianmen one after another.

When Zhao Zhu rode to Fengtianmen, the civil and military officials and princes and princes in the court were almost there. He threw the reins of the horse to Bingyi, glanced lightly in the crowd, and before he could speak, countless eyes and polite salutes came over.

Ritual objects such as bells, chimes, and drums have been placed neatly, and altars, tables, incense and candles have also been arranged. Just wait for the auspicious time to come, Emperor Jianzhang came to worship the sky. I have to say that any royal activities of Dayan have extremely complicated etiquette. Not only to give a banquet to the courtiers and envoys at Fengtianmen, but also to hold a banquet for hundreds of officials when the emperor arrived in Dongyuan.

Fengtianmen was lively early.

In summer, the light is early. This climate is sunny and beautiful at a glance.

On this day, just after the fifth watch, a ray of light has bloomed in the sky.

The joy of shooting willows was originally an old custom left over from the previous dynasty. In the Hongtai Dynasty, because the willow shooting belonged to the "Hu Feng", the royal family did not value it. Therefore, this wind has been suppressed. But this time the Beidi delegation came to Beijing, coupled with the change of the retranslation building, which caused dislike, and used the custom of "Hu Feng" of the previous dynasty to entertain the distinguished guests of Beidi, in order to show the openness and sincerity of the Dayan court, which is very good.

This time, the willow shooting has been given a different meaning in the history of Dayan. But anyone who experienced that grand event, when they recalled it later, would use the sentence "unprecedented, never seen" to describe it. This is not only because it marks the end of the decades-long war between Da Yan and Beidi, and since then it has moved towards a short period of peace, but also because it is the process of "choosing a horse" for Emperor Hongtai's favorite princess Ziyue. The combination of the two has not only been permanently recorded in history, but also compiled into countless scripts and operas by later good deeds, and has been widely sung.

May 30, 27th year of Hong Tai.
